\(L^1\)-stability of periodic stationary solutions of scalar convection-diffusion equations



Abstract: The aim of this paper is to study the L1-stability of periodic stationary solutions of scalar convection-diffusion equations. We obtain dispersion in L2 for all space dimensions using Kruv{z}kov type entropy. And when the space dimension is one, we estimate the number of sign changes of a solution to obtain L1-stability.


The \(L^1\)-stability of periodic stationary solutions to scalar convection-diffusion equations is studied. Two cases are considered: one dimension and many dimensions. One dimension: Let \(f(\cdot,x)\) be a given smooth periodic function and \(u\in L^\infty_{\text{loc}}(\mathbb R,L^\infty(\mathbb R))\) be the solution to the problem \[ \frac{\partial}{\partial t}u+\frac{\partial}{\partial x}f(u,x)- \frac{\partial^2}{\partial x^2}u=0,\quad u(0,x)=w_p+b(x)\quad t>0,\;x\in\mathbb R, \] where \(b\) is a given function and \(w_p\) is the stationary periodic solution parameterized by it's space average \(p\). It is proved that \[ \lim_{t\to\infty}\| u(t,\cdot)-w_p\|_{L^1}=0. \] Dimension \(n\). Let \(u\) be the solution to the problem \[ \frac{\partial}{\partial t}u+\text{div\,}f(u,x)- \Delta u=0,\quad u(0,x)=w_p+b(x)\quad t>0,\;x\in\mathbb R^n. \] Then \(u\) satisfies the inequality \[ \| u(t,\cdot)-w_p\|_{L^2}\leq c_n \| b\|_{L^1}\,t^{-\frac{n}{4}}. \] This inequality is the base for a proof of \(L^1\)-stability.
